====================
mlx5-updates-2017-09-03
This series from Tariq includes micro data path optimization for mlx5e
netdevice driver.
Mainly Tariq introduces the following changes to NAPI and RX handling
path of the driver:
- RX ring structure reorganizing
- Trivial code refactoring and optimization
- NAPI busy-poll for when fast UMR is in progress
- Non-atomic state operations in NAPI context
- Remove unnecessary fields from fast path structures
- page-cache micro optimization
- Rely on NAPI to avoid missing an IRQ for RX/TX shared NAPI contexts
- Stop NAPI when irq changes affinity
- Distribute RSS table among all RX rings
